One of these free agents in center Brook Lopez, who was a finalist for Defensive Player of the Year this past season.

Green Bay Packers fans have long been considered to be some of the most faithful fans in all of sports. However, according to NFL analysts Chris Simms and Mike Florio, Packers fans are also the most welcoming in the NFL. Apparently, even Florio (a known Packers-hater and huge Vikings fan) considers the fans in Green Bay to be the cream of the crop. And they aren’t the only ones. Former Packers quarterback Kurt Benkert and current running back AJ Dillon voiced their agreement on Twitter. Kurt Benkert and AJ Dillon Call Green Bay Packers Fans the Most Welcoming in the…

Milwaukee Bucks, Brook Lopez

Milwaukee Bucks free agent center Brook Lopez has drawn some serious interest from Western Conference teams. The Houston Rockets, in particular, have had their sights set on Lopez for some time. However, a recent report from NBA insider Marc Stein indicates that a deal between Lopez and the Rockets is “not happening.” One more Western Conference team, though, is reportedly interested in throwing its hat in the Lopez free agent sweepstakes. One of his former teams: the Los Angeles Lakers. The Los Angeles Lakers Have Interest in Brook Lopez According to a report by Dave McMenamin of ESPN, the Lakers…

Green Bay Packers Jordan Love, David Bakhtiari

The Green Bay Packers have a relatively successful history of drafting players later than they, perhaps, should have been. Indeed, finding talent in later rounds is one of the reasons why Green Bay has had so much sustained success over the past 30 years. Sure, having Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers as your quarterbacks helped, but they mean nothing if the rest of the team isn’t strong. ESPN recently ranked the top 50 NFL Draft steals of the past 30 years. To be considered for this list, players had to meet certain criteria: First-rounders weren’t included, even if they were…

The Milwaukee Bucks have recently been named as a potential trade partner for Philadelphia 76ers star point guard James Harden. He recently picked up his $35.6 million player option of Philly, but under the agreement that he could work on a trade. Now if you’re anything like me, my initial reaction to these reports was, “No. No way. We can’t make that work.” However, it’s James Harden. There are few guards with his penchant for both scoring and passing in the entire history of the league. Therefore, it is important to take a step back and really take a look…

Jordan Love, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers

When the Green Bay Packers first drafted Aaron Rodgers, he did not have a great relationship with Brett Favre. This was, of course, because Favre refused to take any part in training his replacement. The relationship improved, though, once Favre left. Contrastingly, when the Packers drafted Jordan Love, Rodgers took his replacement under his wing. He certainly was not happy with the organization, but he did everything he could to prepare Love to be a starting quarterback in the NFL. Now, Rodgers is gone and Love is taking his place, just as the Packers planned when they drafted Love in…
